We also offer whale watching trips in Skjervøy, Troms county. Capacity: 50 pax. Duration: 2-3 hours. We provide warm suits for our guests and serve soupe after the trip.

WHALE WATCHING WITH RIB

We have RIB boats with capacity of 12 pax per boat. In the RIB-boats you remain close to the water. Trip-duration is about 1.5-2.5 hours. We aim to spend as much time as possible with the whales on each trip.

The number of available trips and departure times will vary during the year and season. In high summer season, we have up to 3 trips per day. It is important to note that departure times can be changed for various reasons such as sudden changes in weather conditions. Our online booking calendar is updated in real time with available trips.

WINTER SEASON

The winter season runs from October to mid-November and from mid-January to the end of April. In this period, the number of trips will mostly depend on demand. From mid-January to the end of March, we have a peak in the winter season where there are more frequently trips. For our large traditional boat, from 1. November – 31. January we are in Skjervøy for the whale watching, not in Andøy. For Andøy in this period, you may book whale watching on our RIB boats.

Our booking calendar will show available trips on each day during the year. However, there might be cases where we for different reasons have not opened trips for booking at a specific day. If you can’t find availability on a desired day, please contact us.

WEATHER NOTICE!

The weather conditions may impose changes to the planned schedule. Trips may start earlier or later than the departure times given here. It’s very important to arrive at the whale centre at the stated check-in time, so that these situations are accounted for.
